A Boy and His Dog


As I was walking near Regents Park last weekend, I passed this kid and his dog. They were standing together outside a shop, and the boy began kissing and hugging the dog as I approached.


It was hard to tell who was protecting who!

We're having a rainy morning and I'm enjoying my brief break from French class. I think I'm going to lie around and read. I have several issues of The New Yorker to get through, as well as a few other magazines, a big biography of Jack London (which I'm not sure why I'm reading, since I've never been a fan) and my unending journal transcription project. Plenty to do!

Aww - sweet! I woke up to snow on the ground. So glad I mowed yesterday! I have somewhere to go later today (crochet group get-together), but I'm disinclined. I might have to beg off :)

Your photo catches the tremendous bond between children and their pets.

I love those photos and your description. And it's good to have a lazy Saturday, in my opinion.

Adorable pictures -- the boy looks like someone from another century! So very British! I had to laugh that you're going to read a bio of Jack London. I, too, have never been a fan. Happy slogging! :)
